NIT Trichy is a really good college when it comes to most NITs. But, you will only get admission through JEE Main. You will definitely have to score well if you plan to secure admission here. 

  • About 90% of the entire paper is quite easy to solve at home but you will have to develop skills to be able to solve the paper quickly and efficiently. 
  • See how well you can do with MCQs along with your boards’ preparation. 
  • Develop your accuracy, for example, if you solve 30 questions, ensure that 18 of them are correct at least even if you end up attempting only 22 of them.
  • As far as CSE or any good core branch is concerned, NITs are relatively easier to get into as compared to IITs. 

The cut-offs for NIT Trichy in CSE are as follows:

Categories Male Female
Home State Other state Home State Other state
General 5235 1373 4075 2371
SC 1300 138 1435 420
OBC 2165 357 4085 1060
EWS 2068 165 2489 305

You will have to do your best and strive a little hard in order to secure your seat. Getting into core branches is quite tough especially for branches like ECE and mechanical. As long as you meet the above cut-offs, you should be good to go. Analyze your paper well, set a dedicated schedule and at the end, you will surely be able to crack the JEE.

After completing a B.Tech from NIT Trichy, is it advisable to pursue an M.Tech in IITs or IISc?

PP
Pratik Parikh Posted On : July 19th, 2023
Lives in Bangalore

No, it's certainly not a wise decision to pursue an MTech after completing BTech from NIT Trichy. The courses and the approach are similar, giving you no newer perspectives and wasting 2 years as well as the money spent. A better alternative is to go for an MS or Ph.D. abroad instead. That will be the true utilization of your money, knowledge, and time. 

However, if you are hesitant about going abroad, an MBA from an Indian B school is also a great option.

An MTech in IIT should only be considered if you have a low CGPA and have no project achievement up your sleeve. The MTech course will give you a second chance to improve your grades and work well on projects improving your profile as a whole. This will help you open better Ph.D. options. But if you are not planning to do one, then MTech is again of no use.

NIT Trichy has a decent and well-equipped gym. The campus is widespread and accommodates around 10,000 people but there is only 1 gym for all.

You can book a morning or evening slot at the gym in order to avoid the humidity. However, it is manageable if you are quite passionate. There are certain gym groups and are approachable. If you do not will to be a loner at the gym then you might have to pull some strings to include yourself with them.

There are various students who install pull-up bars in their hostel rooms for themselves. Some have even rods and weights to lift and grounds around offer you enough space to run anytime.

What possible branches could I get in NIT Trichy with a score of 168 in the JEE Mains 2021 paper 1?

AR
Aronyo Roychowdhury Posted On : September 15th, 2021
B.Tech from National Institute of Technology ,Tiruchirappalli,Tamil Nadu

Admission in NIT Trichy has seats reserved for the students belonging to the states of Tamil Nadu. Therefore there is some quota that benefits certain students. 

  • If you are from outside Tamil Nadu and belong to the general category then with 165 marks you may get Production Engineering or something related to the production department. Some of my seniors got admission to the production department in NIT Trichy, two years back, and they had almost the same marks.
  • In the second case if you belong to the state of Tamil Nadu and are from the general category then the chances are better for getting core or better branches. You may get branches such as MME, production engineering, or chemical engineering. 
  • If you don’t belong to Tamil Nadu and are from the OBC category then you can expect branches like Instrumentation and control, Civil which is one of the core branches, MME, Production, Chemical. The chances for this gets even better if you are from Tamil Nadu and belong to the OBC category. 
  • If you are from SC and ST category then you will be able to get even better branches however it’s less likely to get CSE or ECE. 

Here is the 2020 cutoff for NIT Trichy.

Courses  General 
HS  OS
B.Arch  252-415 282-615
B.Tech CSE 163-564 1000-4358
B.Tech ECE 847-2358 3043-7112
B.Tech EEE 954-4057 7490-10081
B.Tech ME 2468-4959 7258-13069
B.Tech CE 5541-11245 14883-26516
B.Tech MME 12765-16649 23195-32666
B.Tech PE  11790-16631 16285-24209

The cutoffs are known to change every year and with no certainty and predictability. It can only be confirmed after the first few rounds of counseling. The opening and the closing rank of a particular department sometimes varies by 2k in the general category and more in the quota.

Which is the best college among NIT (Trichy,Warangal,Suratkal) for any Maharashtrian or North Indian to live happily i.e without facing any dominance of vernacular dialect student?

GC
Gautam Chowdhury Posted On : July 19th, 2023
studied at National Institute of Technology, Tiruchirappalli, Tamil Nadu, India

You won’t face any kind of dominance or bias studying at either college. The students are friendly and unless you provoke the other party, no one’s going to interfere in your business or harass you. It’s good to make friends belonging to diverse cultures rather than limiting yourself to certain cultural boundaries.  Usually, IITs and NITs have very friendly seniors and peers and there isn’t ragging in any form.

Remember you are not here just to score a high grade or win medals. Rather, you are here to change your life and yourself and only learning from others' experiences will help you go a long way. So don’t worry and go for either NIT Trichy or NIT Warangal and make the most out of the available resources. Be empathetic and always think from a broader perspective. Only then can you attain new heights.
